- The loan period for most materials is four weeks, with one renewal.
- Guests are responsible for all damage and/or loss. Damage is estimated upon receipt of the book, while loss is calculated as the replacement value of the book.
- Overdue materials are charged $0.25 per day per item. Fines may be paid by cash or check. Patrons with $25 or more in fines will not be able to check out materials.
- A book is assigned a “lost” status when it is past due 15 or more days. In instances of loss, patrons are charged a non-refundable $20 processing fee. If the book cannot be returned, this is compounded with a $50 replacement fee.
